About this ebook

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Book Preview: #1 We have named our very species and genus Homo sapiens sapiens because we are able to know, perceive, and understand. Yet we rarely take advantage of this ability, which is what makes us not only who we are, but also so large-capacity.

#2 We have a vivid experience of a world existing out there in three dimensions, beyond our own body, that seems real and that we can sense and move in. And within this conjuring, a sense of personhood is generated as well.

#3 We must recognize our sentience as fundamental and contemplate whether it might serve us to develop this extraordinary capacity for knowing which, surprisingly, includes the ability to understand what happens without knowing it.

#4 Sentience is our capacity for awareness. It is what and who we actually are. It is what makes us human. It is what grants us a wisdom that can steer us clear of our tendencies to cause harm, wittingly or unwittingly.
